Feminism is What We Say It Is

The project of isolating feminism and turning it into a commonly understood target, is called clarificatory discourse. The projected outcome of clarificatory discourse is called target consensus.
We of the non-feminist world propose to bring such things about, and we
do not mean to seek feminist approval. If our conclusions violate
official feminist self-presentation, that is not our concern. So in the
end, feminism is what we say it is -- and we will make it stick.
